The partners of the complementary board of directors of NVIDIA will not start to sell the GeForce RTX 5050 Until mid-July, but it seems that the company has given OEM the light to start announcing laptops with the new entry-level GPU. WCCFTECH And Video Note that laptops equipped with 5050 are available on order in China from this morning from national manufacturers like Mechrevo.
In the United States, companies like MSI and Acer have started to announce their own RTX 5050 laptops. The first, for example, will sell the Katana 15 For $ 999 via Walmart. In addition to the 5050, it has a Core i7-14650HX, 16 GB RAM processor and a 144 Hz screen. We contacted Nvidia for more information on global availability, and we will update this article once we learn more.
In the meantime, Chinese announcements give us a good idea what to expect the new GPU. It includes 2,560 cuda cores, 8 GB of GDDR7 VRAM and a 115W TDP. The memory specification is interesting. Before today’s announcement, the 5050 office variant would have included the GDDR6 memory. The fact that the laptop version has GDDR7 VRAM also suggests that his brother or sister would not be very logical for Nvidia to tighten the desktop card in this way. With a 128 -bit interface, the RTX 5050 should have a 384 GB / s memory bandwidth, putting at the same level as the 5060 Mobile in this department.
As for performance, the 5050 laptop should land somewhere in the middle between the 4050 And 5060, with decent generational gains offered but nothing too exciting. This being an entry -level card, the fact that it only comes with 8 GB of VRAM is more understandable, and it is suitable for the bill of a GPU that most people will only use for occasional games.
